President Muhammadu Buhari yesterday signed Executive Order 007 to close the road infrastructure gap in the transportation sector of the country through a Public Private Partnership (PPP) arrangement.
Tagged order 007 on road infrastructure development and refurbishment investment tax credit scheme, the president signed it at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

In the first phase of the scheme, 19 road projects covering 794 kilometers in 11 states are going to be fixed by six private companies including Dangote Group of Companies. The benefitting states are Abia, Borno, Benue, Edo, Gombe, Kaduna, Kano, Kogi, Lagos and Rivers.
The signing ceremony was witnessed by Governors of Abia, Kaduna, Kogi, Gombe, Jigawa and Zamfara states.
Signing the order, Buhari said through the scheme, companies that willing and able to spend their own funds on constructing roads to their factories or farms would recover their construction costs by paying reduced taxes over a period of time.
Speaking on behalf of the investors, the chairman of Dangote Group of Companies, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, promised the government that they won’t fail in fixing the road projects.
“The impact is that it will make businesses run smoothly and also more profitably, it will reduce the cost of doing business because as we speak today, all of you know the deplorable condition of roads in Nigeria,” he said. Speaking for the governors, Nasir El- Rufai of Kaduna State described the order as an innovative governance that would benefit all.
